Because of the medicine donation incident, the relationship between the Cui family and the samurai family's ships gradually became closer.

When the next stop was Kaifeng and the boat was resting, the Cui family made a few dishes of good dishes and sent them over to the gentlemen, and the Wu family also happily accepted them.

Next, the two sides exchanged ideas and became more and more intimate.

In the blink of an eye, half a month has passed. The further south you go, the more congested the river becomes, and the boat moves slower and slower. On the twenty-eighth day of the Lunar New Year, they also traveled to the vicinity of Suzhou.

"It seems that we are going to spend this year in Suzhou. Looking at the ships in front of him that were densely lined up and waiting to move forward, Cui Pu sighed helplessly.

Before leaving, he was still happily thinking that this year he finally didn't have to participate in the boring and old-fashioned ancestor worship ceremony in the clan. This year, he could live as he wanted! But now, as the days away from home became longer and longer, he began to miss the dull days that he was accustomed to.

Now, the yamen is sealed, and the fathers and brothers are also going home to prepare for the New Year, right? The whole house must be busy with all the things for the New Year, the mother-in-law and sister-in-law are busy cutting new clothes, and the brothers are walking around, chanting poems and paintings, so lively. After Chinese New Year's Eve, the families are even more lively when they move around each other. He was the only one, wandering alone, and there were few people around him who could speak, and his heart suddenly felt very clear.

But when he turned around, when he saw Mu Jiaojiao, who was still sitting quietly in the cabin reading a book, his heart settled down again.

Walked up to her and sat down: "What are you looking at?"

Mu Jiaojiao handed him the book.

Cui Pu looked at it and immediately smiled. "I've been studying medicine since you were all the way, and you've been studying these things?"

"Isn't that right? It's rare to go out, and we have walked such a long way, so we naturally have to study the customs of these places. "Mu Jiaojiao is a serious way.

"Well, the best way to study the customs is to start with food. Cui Pu nodded.

Mu Jiaojiao still had such a dignified and calm expression: "I heard Daddy say before that Suzhou's Fuliji roast chicken is very famous. It's a pity that because of the distance, I only hear its name, and this time we can ask someone to buy it and try it. There are also water chestnut cakes, chicken cakes, steamed buns and other noodles in Jixian County, which are also famous far and wide. This time, if we stay in this place for a few days, we can ask someone to buy them and try them one by one. If the taste is good, let the red beans learn to make them, and we can eat them when we want to eat them when we go back to Yangzhou. ”

Hearing her say so many delicacies in one breath, Cui Pu couldn't help but swallow his saliva, all that came to his mind was all kinds of delicacies, and the homesickness in his heart quickly disappeared.

"Okay, that's it!" he nodded hurriedly, and his heart was already thinking about how to enjoy these delicacies.

After waiting in line at the ferry for half a day, the boat finally entered the port. By this time it was already dark.

Mu Jiaojiao and Cui Pu got off the boat and hurriedly went to the post house for a night. When I woke up the next morning, I thought of asking someone to buy roast chicken and other things. Of course, Cui Pu didn't forget to ask someone to bring a copy to the martial arts family next door.

The day passed in the midst of appreciating the food and arranging meals for Chinese New Year's Eve.

It was already cold winter, and although they had gone all the way south, the temperature was already slightly warmer than before, but Mu Jiaojiao was still too cold. So seeing that the sky was getting dark, she hurriedly got into the quilt, holding a stove in her hand and refusing to let go.

Cui Pu was idle, so he also got into the quilt, hugged her and used his body to warm her. As for the stove...... He's got him, what else do you want this dead thing to do? Throw it aside!

It's just that it's still early, and I can't sleep if I want to. The two of them were so sticky together, and Cui Pu was even more obscene, so unconsciously, the two of them twisted into a ball.

The red beans didn't dare to stay indoors, so they only roasted the fire in the warm pavilion next to them, gossiping with Xiao Si'er.

Bang bang bang

Suddenly, there was a sharp knock on the door. Xiao Si'er hurriedly went to open the door: "What's the matter?"

"Little Fourth Brother, a couple came outside, saying that they were here to seek medical treatment, did you say that we should tell Liulangjun and the Sixth Young Lady about this?"

"Seeking medical treatment? In this place, how could anyone come to the lady for medical treatment?" Xiao Si'er's face sank.

The subordinate said: "They were brought by the people from Wu Erlangjun's side." ”

"So that's the case!" Xiao Si'er suddenly understood, "Okay, I know, you go and bring people in, I'll report to Lang Jun and the lady." ”

The servant hurriedly agreed.

Xiao Si'er went to knock on the door with Hongdou.

Cui Puzheng and Mu Jiaojiao were having a lot of fun, and he didn't want to be interrupted by a knock on the door, he was in a very bad mood. "What the hell is going on? If you don't tell me why, I'll kill you right now!"

"Lang Jun, Wu Er Lang Jun sent someone to bring a couple over, saying that they asked the lady to help treat the disease. Xiao Si'er shuddered, and quickly explained it concisely.

Cui Pu suddenly lost his mind to play. "This surnamed Wu is really good enough, and we have eaten and drunk a lot for nothing these days, and as a result, he still keeps a straight face on me all day long. It's better today, tomorrow is the New Year, he just got me something to do at night!"

Wu Lixin's thoughts, he could guess: Isn't looking for patients to send to the door for the New Year just to find bad luck for them? If Mu Jiaojiao cures people, that's what she should do. If she can't be cured, not only will all of them feel unlucky, but Wu Lixin will be able to take the opportunity to do things again!

are all officials, why are they still so narrow-minded?

Mu Jiaojiao said with a smile: "Along the way, you have been out of the limelight, causing those gentlemen of the martial arts family to compare him with you all the time, and they all pick their noses and eyes at Wu Erlangjun, he must hate you to death in his heart." Now it's so easy to seize an opportunity to find you something, how can he let it go?"

"I understand his thoughts, but this method is too inferior. Is he going to be the New Year?" Cui Pu said coldly.

"At worst, he's done it all. Now let's hurry up and show people, if we can save people's lives, it is also to accumulate virtue for ourselves, and it is best for everyone to be safe and sound during the New Year. Mu Jiaojiao hurriedly smoothed his hair.

Cui Pu pouted. "That's all there is to it. ”

So they called for someone to come in, changed their clothes and combed their hair, and went forward.

When I entered the front hall, I saw Wu Lixin's steward coming forward with a smile and saluting: "Cui Liulangjun, Sixth Young Lady, it's not right for us to disturb the two of you late at night." It's just that my family Langjun saw that the eldest lady was sick in others, but the invited Lang Zhong said that he was not saved, which caused the two to hug each other and cry, which looked really pitiful. Lang Jun couldn't stand it, and he wanted to help them, so he thought that the sixth young lady had excellent medical skills, maybe she would have a way, so he ordered a certain to take them over for medical treatment. Please also ask the sixth young lady to be merciful and help our Langjun to save this eldest lady!"

Well, what he said was really cheap. He Wu Lixin wanted to do good deeds, but let the people of the Cui family take action. did a good job, it was they who helped the surname Wu, and the credit was on Wu Lixin's head. If you don't do it well, the mistake will be borne by the Cui family, and Wu Lixin's kindness is always right. So no matter whether it works out or not, his good reputation as Wu Lixin has already been occupied, only Mu Jiaojiao, who sells coolies, is not a person inside and out.

Cui Pu was not very happy in his heart, and when he heard what the steward said, he was even more angry.

"What about the two Wus, since he wants to do good deeds, why don't you let him come and beg us personally? Is my lady only qualified to let you be such a steward?"

The steward's face turned white and he quickly confessed. "My family Langjun is not well......"

"He's not feeling well, and he's still thinking about doing good deeds? Then why don't you let him do good things to the end? After half a month, what big problem can he have? If there's really a problem, let my wife treat him by the way. For the sake of our fellow travelers, we won't charge him money!" Cui Pu drank coldly.

The steward was so scolded that he couldn't raise his head, so he had to whisper: "We didn't think about this matter." I'm going to invite my family to come now. ”

"Hurry up!" Cui Pu said viciously.

The steward didn't dare to say more, so he turned around and asked Wu Lixin in a hurry.

And just when Cui Pu was teaching the steward, Mu Jiaojiao had already walked up to the couple and carefully observed the woman's symptoms.

And the middle-aged man had been holding the woman tightly, his face full of nervousness. He looked at Mu Jiaojiao with expectant eyes, but said, "I'm sorry for this little lady to help my lady take a look." If you can see it, we can't thank you enough. If not, it will be fine, and we will go at once, and we will not defile your court. ”

While talking, he also wiped his forehead and cheeks with a wet handkerchief for the lady in his arms. The movements were very gentle and careful, and it seemed that the couple had a very good relationship on weekdays.

Hongdou was also inexplicably moved when he saw this, and hurriedly whispered: "Don't worry about this Langjun, my lady's medical skills are good." If the eldest lady is saved, my lady will definitely not stand idly by. ”

Mu Jiaojiao observed the woman's face, checked her pulse again, and suddenly said, "Can you untie her clothes and show me?"

The middle-aged man was stunned. "Undressing?"

Mu Jiaojiao's head was bright. "I want to finalize it. If that's what I expected, then I know how to get the drug. ”

When the middle-aged man heard her say, 'How to take the medicine', he suddenly seemed to grasp a life-saving straw, and quickly nodded: "Little lady, you can see it if you want to." As long as you can save her life, you can look anywhere!"

Mu Jiaojiao called red beans to help. Seeing this, Cui Pu and Xiao Si'er hurriedly walked out.

After untying Madame's clothes layer by layer and seeing the clothes she was wearing in the innermost, Mu Jiaojiao finally nodded her head: "That's true." ”

"Little lady, do you know what kind of illness my lady is?" the middle-aged man asked busily.

"It's not a big deal, it's just heat stroke. Mu Jiaojiao said.

As soon as these words came out, not to mention that the middle-aged man was stunned, even Cui Pu and Xiao Si'er outside were stunned.

Wu Lixin just happened to come over, and when he heard this, he laughed even more: "The sixth young lady is really a miracle doctor. In this winter, the symptoms of heat stroke can be diagnosed, and those doctors in the hospital must be willing to bow down!"

"Shut up for me!" Cui Pu was angry when he saw him, and immediately chose to stand on Mu Jiaojiao's side with a clear banner, "My lady said that she was suffering from heat stroke, that is heat stroke!"

"Okay, please also ask my sister-in-law to explain and explain, how did this eldest lady suffer from heat stroke on this cold day?" Wu Lixin said with a strange yin and yang attitude, clearly looking like he was waiting to see a good show.

Mu Jiaojiao ignored him, but asked the middle-aged man: "Before you asked the doctor to show her, did the doctor say that she has a winter and summer vein, and she will definitely die?"

"That's what I said!" the middle-aged man nodded hurriedly.

When Wu Lixin heard this, his eyes were also wide, and his eyes were full of disbelief -- this woman actually guessed what the doctor said correctly! It was precisely because of this sentence that he thought of sending people here to make trouble for them.

It's just that now it seems that there is something else going on?

He couldn't help but beat the drum in his heart, and suddenly wanted to run.
